Testimonials
"The training went well; I learned a lot. It was helpful to have used P6 some prior to the class so I wasn’t completely new to it. Also having a physical manual to go back and review when I need refreshing, is great. I will probably need to take the advanced course down the road. Yet this course gave me enough to start using P6 effectively."
~ Nate C., Gig Harbor, WA
"I was very impressed with the training and hope to be invited to and attend future sessions. The instructors were very knowledgeable in the course content and could easily troubleshoot issues attendees may be having. The prep instructions and material, course format, and presentation were very professional. The content was spot on and I wasn’t bored or overwhelmed at any point."
~Lisa C., Project Manager, Winter Garden, FL
"Training went well. I liked the approach of being able to do the same thing that was being shown by the instructor in the remote access. That kept things moving more than the traditional approach of lecturing and then letting everyone try it. It was also nice to have the trainer to share experiences and answer questions as they were asked."
